The colors should deepen as the bloom matures. I'll be sure & share the developments...

Hope your New Year is off to just as terrific a start. My daughter doesn't go back to school until the 9th of January so we are still "holidaying." (that's my excuse for not being around ~ that and Pinterest ~ I've become way too obsessed!)

Yes, I agree, you're the Orchid queen! You take my breath away with these posts! I've always been a huge Orchid fan (I had Orchids in my bridal bouquet). But I'm too chicken to grow them myself. My kids are on break now, too, so we're having some fun family time. Enjoy your time with your daughter!
